way to protect children, especially those children that are not vaccinated and who have chronic health conditions and are more vulnerable, that masking is really their only option. >> so say that there's a potential fight because the governor of florida, ron desantis, has threatened funding for school districts that tried to enforce mask mandates. let's listen to what the governor said over time about masks for students. >> these interventions have failed time and time again throughout this pandemic, not just in the united states but abroad. they have not stopped the spread and particularly with delta, which is even more transmissable. if it didn't stop it before it definitely ain't going to stop it now. i have young kids. my wife and i are not going to do the masks with the kids. we never have. i want to see my kids smiling. i want them having fun. we need our kids to be able to be kids. we need them to be able to breathe. it's terribly uncomfortable for them to do it. parents obviously can equip

quarantines to five days. the question is will that get more people back to work quicker. with me now, dr. kevin campbell. what do you think? you think the quarantine -- the shrinkage of the quarantine times will help? let's let people get back out there. >> jackie, it was the right move. i think what we're seeing is what happens when you test asymptomatic people routinely, you have a lot of positive tests that are people that are really not sick. so i think limiting that quarantine makes sense. we know the virus is most transmissable in the first couple days after symptoms occur and a couple days after they occur. so i think this makes a lot of sense to me. >> john kept talking about the economy. he mentioned the fact that there's people unvaccinated. remember that 2/3s of this country is fully vaccinated.

contagious. it's calmed a lot of folks since that it is not as bad as they thought but it's just as contagious but they seem to be saying, you know, darn it, i'm going to continue with my plans. that was very much in doubt about a month ago. that is surprising. >> yeah, we've had the weeks now to see how the rest of the world is faring with omicron. numbers have gone up, but life goes on. the symptoms are not the kinds of symptoms that would necessarily keep you from feeling well, living your everyday life. it is keeping people at bay when it comes to international travel. at the end of the day, if omicron is more transmissable, we'll see a pull back on international travel. not so much that people are getting sick and feeling sick, it's about being stuck on the other side of the border for the ten days or so. rules might change last minute, borders might close last minute. it's the concerns that might

the read you get on it. you're the medical expert. i'll defer to you. i'm going on what the markets were doing today. responding to this notion that maybe seizing on what is happening in asia and europe where this is something to watch out for. are they getting ahead of themselves? >> i don't think so. i think that many of us advise watchful waiting as omicron emerged. we talk about we need to see what it looks like and how transmissable. in the early phases, we can see it's transmissable. people don't seem to be getting as sick. the unvaccinated, they are getting sick. very sick. those with vaccines, they seem to be doing pretty well with very mild symptoms. >> neil: you and i talked about this before, doctor, about the number of people unvaccinated that are not moved by these

the news around this new variant has understandably worried a couple of people. i get it, it's been a long couple of years. but we have tools to protect ourselves. we have to double down on using them. but we should also remember that there are unanswered questions about the variant. we've got to be careful about taking the anecdote or the small bit of data that will pop up. we've got t wait for all of it to come together. >> how worried should we be about this omicron variant? >> we should be concerned enough to pull out all the stops in answering three critical questions. number one, is it more transmissable than delta? we don't know yet. number two, is it more severe in terms of the illness it causes. we don't know that either. and third, are vaccine efficacy impacted by this variant. and that also we don't have a clear answer to. but one thing we do know is that we're doing everything necessary to get those answers. we're working closely with our south african colleagues, with the researchers in the private sector, in academia and around the world to make sure we can get the answers but it will take
